UPDATE #2 - New medal added for getting a treasure from behind an obstacle. HINT: Gems come out at regular intervals (it's only the speed at which they move that changes) If you think it's time for a new gem and don't see one, check behind a rock. They're always in the last place you look... ;)

UPDATE: Missing a gem no longer clears your entire bar... it only costs you 3 gems now. So those hard to reach gems shouldn't be as much of a problem. You still need to fill the bar to knock the boulder back though, I can't make it TOO easy ;)

Read me. You'll laugh, cry, fart and then laugh again because you farted. NOTE: *may not actually induce farting

"Everything, by Everyone", an upcoming documentary by Nathan Kuruna, will undoubtedly have an impact on how Newgrounds and its contributions to the world of entertainment are viewed.

From Pico and U.F.A, to Alien Hominid, Numa Numa, Charlie the Unicorn, Dad 'n Me, Meatboy, B and Strawberry Clock, Madness, Waterman, Metal Gear Awesome, Bitey, Mastermind and Blockhead, Castle Crashers and well *whew* you get the point... Newgrounds is much more than stick deaths and soundboards. You know it. I know it. But the rest of the world probably does not...and surely Scotty Doesn't Know.

Newgrounds is a thriving community of talented artists, animators, programmers, composers, designers, writers and voice actors.

Out of that community careers and businesses have been built, kittens and turtles have been tossed, console games have been made then sold along side E.A and Nintendo, seals have been clubbed and dead babies dressed, life long friendships have been made and otherwise impossible opportunities have opened up. This is a story worth telling and we wanted to do something to help support and promote it. (O.K., maybe leave out part about the kittens and babies)

With Nathan's O.K., we made this mini game so that he'd have something more than a URL to pass around. Hopefully it'll generate some exposure for his movie and maybe even generate some donations to help fund the project. He's met his Kickstarter goal, which is a HUGE step in the right direction, but that's just the beginning.

Everything, by Everyone is about all of us and we really hope he gets the chance to make this movie. If you want to help, throw Nathan a few bucks, send your friends to this game or steal it and put it on your site. Or you can just hack Kongregate, Addicting Games, Armor Games and all the other Flash portals out there so that everyone has to come here instead... j/k... or am I? No, I'm kidding. Or am I? ;)

while the game may seem difficult to start with, this game is easy to master once you get the hang of it. the simple controls and short duration of each game encourages the player to beat his high score each time he loses, there is certainly a replay value to it once you got everything figured out.
however, you needed to add some instructions at the menu. i took me one or two retries to figure out how the game actually works. you can't expect a player to know beforehand how to jump over lava and to knock the boulders back in order to survive. also, there is an element of luck to the game. sometimes it is impossible to collect all the gems without missing a few. therefore, you need to add a system which tells you where the gems will appear just before you actually see them. this can help reduce the effect of luck in this game.
for those who got frustruated, try to stay in the middle thoughtout the game to shorten the average distance from the gems. focus on the bottom of the screen.
